Winter shorts

If you are looking for something to spice up your boring wardrobe, winter shorts may be the answer.

Sporty and playful, these collegiate inspired shorts create the perfect ensemble for an evening out.

Darker colors and heavier weight fabric is the way to go when selecting winter shorts. Pair opaque tights and boots with this youthful style.

The length of shorts depends upon your comfort level, but anywhere from below the knee to mid-thigh is acceptable. Remember to keep the hues darker on the bottom and lighter on the top for the most flattering look.

Although this style is not for everyone, it does liven up the monotony of jeans and pants for winter.
